Download or read book It Takes Two written by Judy Ford and published by Environmental & Genetic Solutions. This book was released on 1997-12-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It Takes Two was written for couples who wanted to understand how their lifestyles could contribute to their fertility and the health of their babies. It is based on a research study that we undertook over a period of five years in South Australia where 1,000 couples generously agreed to share their personal information and then be followed from every time they attempted to conceive through to their outcome - a child, or sadly a miscarriage or infertility. This book is both sensitive and scientifically based. It can help both with understanding any problems as well as optimising outcomes. One major cause of infertility that isn't addressed here, is having infrequent and/or stressful sex. My companion book 'Making love and babies' has helped many couples find their way to loving sex and natural fertility.
Book Synopsis Against Atheism by : Oscar Priyanand
Download or read book Against Atheism written by Oscar Priyanand and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, atheism has always been lame and puerile but this new kid in the block called militant atheism uses science and evolution as its twin crutches to rationalize its worldview. To the extent that all their books and web sites are more about science, its methodology, or its progress rather than about atheism itself. Their strident smart talk and rational pretensions has a following whose numbers are unfortunately increasing. Aided by vitriolic debates and books of Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, and Sam Harris, they are becoming more vocal by the day. Against Atheism is a concise and devastating rebuttal to militant atheism. This book takes a radically new approach in Christian apologetics by critically examining their arguments and exposing their scientific and rational pretensions. By doing that, one can clearly see the poverty of their worldview and the glaring contradictions within it.
Book Synopsis The Evaluation of Research in Social Sciences and Humanities by : Andrea Bonaccorsi
Download or read book The Evaluation of Research in Social Sciences and Humanities written by Andrea Bonaccorsi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-04 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines very important issues in research evaluation in the Social Sciences and Humanities. It is based on recent experiences carried out in Italy (2011-2015) in the fields of research assessment, peer review, journal classification, and construction of indicators, and presents a systematic review of theoretical issues influencing the evaluation of Social Sciences and Humanities. Several chapters analyse original data made available through research assessment exercises. Other chapters are the result of dedicated and independent research carried out in 2014-2015 aimed at addressing some of the debated and open issues, for example in the evaluation of books, the use of Library Catalog Analysis or Google Scholar, the definition of research quality criteria on internationalization, as well as opening the way to innovative indicators. The book is therefore a timely and important contribution to the international debate.

Book Synopsis Impossibility : The Limits of Science and the Science of Limits by : John D. Barrow
Download or read book Impossibility : The Limits of Science and the Science of Limits written by John D. Barrow and published by Oxford University Press, UK. This book was released on 1998-03-12 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are there some things we can never think, or know, let alone do? In this fascinating book, acclaimed author John Barrow reveals the often paradoxical limits on knowledge and achievement, and shows that the notion of `impossibility' has played, and continues to play, a striking role in our thinking, and in the way in which we understand the universe and ourselves. - ;What are the true limits of science and human endeavour? The end of each century leads to a stocktaking of human achievement and our expectation about the future. This new book by John D. Barrow looks at what limits there might be to human discovery and what we might find, ultimately, to be unknowable, undoable, or unthinkable. Weaving together a tapestry of surprises, Barrow explores the frontiers of knowledge, taking in surrealism, impossible figures, time travel, paradoxes of logic and perspective, theological speculations about Beings for whom nothing is impossible -- all stimulate us to contemplate something more that what is. With sufficient time and money at our disposal, why should we find anything impossible? Barrow explores the limits that may be imposed upon a full understanding of the physical Universe by constraints of technology, computes, cost, and complexity. He considers how the nature of the universe's structure prevents us from answering the deepest questions about its beginning, its structure, and its future. And he delves into the deep limits imposed by the nature of knowledge itself, which have profound implications for any quest for complete knowledge. They take us into the debates over the problems of free will and consciousness. G--ouml--;del's famous theorem about our inability to capture the truths of mathematics by rules and axioms is explored to see if it has any implications for science. Clearly and engagingly written, and using simple explanations, this book reveals that impossibility is a deep and powerful notion: that any Universe complex enough to contain conscious beings will contain limits on what those beings can know about their Universe: that what we cannot know defines reality as surely as what we can know. Impossibility is a two-edged sword: it threatens the completeness of the scientific enterprise yet without it there would be no laws of Nature, no science, and no scientists. - ;In this illuminating, well-written account of Limits (with capital L), John D. Barrow chronicles and explains the limits of science as a reality-generation mechanism and why it matters.So for about as good an account as you're going to get of where science stops, read this book. It won't tell you any final answer. But the journey is far more interesting - and important - than the destination. - Nature

Book Synopsis World Design Science Decade: Phase 1 Document 3 by : R. Buckminster Fuller
Download or read book World Design Science Decade: Phase 1 Document 3 written by R. Buckminster Fuller and published by Estate of R. Buckminster Fuller. This book was released on with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The documents in this series originated with a proposal made by R. Buckminster Fuller to the International Union of Architects (I. U. A.) at their VIIth Congress in London, England in July, 1961, launching the World Design Science Decade. He proposed then that the architectural schools around the world be encouraged by the I. U. A. to invest the next ten years in a continuing problem of how to make the total world's resources which [in 1961] serve only 40% serve 100% of humanity through competent design despite a continuing decrease of metal resources per capita. In essence, The World Design Science Decade series of documents suggests, in great detail, ways in which world architectural schools, and specifically their students, should initiate, and assume The Design Science Decade. The total series includes many of Fuller's most prescient ideas. A note from the series editor, John McHale: "Though the language of some of the texts may seem difficult at first approach, it should be borne in mind that one of our major problems in thinking today [1965] is the use of language systems which still represent a fixed, structurally compartmentalized world view. The terms available to us for the expression of dynamic, rather than static, concepts are far from satisfactory. Fuller's language is particularly representative of the 'transitional state' (of the western world) between the older, traditional, noun-centered culture to its present day, changing, verb-centered culture'. In his search for an adequately descriptive terminology he tends to employ concepts and usages from many different fields juxtaposed in ways which may be unfamiliar to those more customarily restrained within the vocabularies of particular disciplines."

Book Synopsis Political Science Research in Practice by : Akan Malici
Download or read book Political Science Research in Practice written by Akan Malici and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing rings truer to those teaching political science research methods: students hate taking this course. Tackle the challenge and turn the standard research methods teaching model on its head with Political Science Research in Practice. Akan Malici and Elizabeth Smith engage students first with pressing political questions and then demonstrate how a researcher has gone about answering them, walking through real political science research that contributors have conducted. Through the exemplary use of survey research, experiments, field research, case studies, content analysis, interviews, document analysis, statistical research, and formal modeling, each chapter introduces students to a method of empirical inquiry through a specific topic that will spark their interest and curiosity. Each chapter shows the process of developing a research question, how and why a particular method was used, and the rewards and challenges discovered along the way. Students can better appreciate why we need a science of politics--why methods matter--with these first-hand, issue-based discussions. The following features make this an ideal teaching tool: An introductory chapter that succinctly introduces key terms in research methodology Key terms bolded throughout and defined in a glossary Broad coverage of the most important methods used in political science research and the major subfields of the discipline A companion website designed to foster online active learning An instructor's manual and testbank to help incorporate this innovative text into your syllabus and assessment.
Book Synopsis Rescuing Science by : Paul M. Sutter
Download or read book Rescuing Science written by Paul M. Sutter and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-03-05 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers concerned about the roots of the public mistrust of science, get the book that Publishers Weekly says is "an ardent appraisal of what ails the scientific establishment." Rescuing Science: Restoring Trust in an Age of Doubt is the product of Paul M. Sutter’s long career in the scientific community, both inside and outside academia. Interweaving his own experiences as an astrophysicist with broader trends observed by himself and others, Sutter roots the current distrust of science within the academic scientific community itself. Throughout this book, Sutter reveals a community that has come to disregard the broader public, is obsessed with winning grants, ignores political landmines, limits the entrance of minorities, and permits fraud in the pursuit of notoriety. Sutter tackles these and other issues through the lens of a vicious cycle, where public mistrust and misunderstanding of science leads to fewer funding opportunities, which leads to more competition within science, which leads to a rise in fraud, which circles back to greater mistrust. Each chapter addresses one of the vices the academic scientific community has allowed to perpetuate, the sum of which he likens to an illness of the soul of science. He also explores the historical context of each issue in order to identify its root causes. Sutter concludes each chapter by providing actionable solutions for both the nonscientific and scientific communities, as well as what he regards as an ideal and healthy scientific approach, which will lead to greater public trust.
